AI Assisted Software Development: From Artisan Craft to Industrial Scale Delivery
AI Assisted Software Development: From Artisan Craft to Industrial Scale Delivery
Most Nordic engineering organisations have already made the first move: put an AI coding assistant in every developer's hands. Lo and behold: Individual throughput climbs. Executives take notice. Still, the velocity metrics stay stubbornly flat.
The problem isn't the tools. It's running them on a production system designed for a different era. An artisan era. We need to get industrial. We will build a software factory.
This whitepaper explains the gap and shows what closing it looks like in practice.
WHAT'S INSIDE
- Why individual AI productivity gains don't compound into faster delivery —and the structural reason most organizations plateau
- The Software Factory model: a platform-first production system built to handle AI-generated volume safely and at scale
- A three-phase implementation roadmap, from Lighthouse pilots to full industrial-scale delivery
- An ROI model: when will you get to breakeven?
- The new organizational roles the transition requires and how they fit into an existing engineering team
WHO IT'S FOR
Engineering leaders, CTOs, and IT decision-makers in Nordic companies who have moved past "should we use AI?" and are ready to ask "how do we actually build with it?"
